PAYING OUR SULDIERS.
There has been agood deal of talkin
Parliament in regurd to the sending of 1
Uaiiadimi troops to South Africa and how
they are to bc paid. The St. John Sun’s
` the nieiisiue of this talk by columns of the
’ Hansard reports. According to this au- _W
; two sides of the House in the proportion of i
,. (24 cents) a day during the time they are
n observers Reply.
,clever Ottawa. correspondent has taken'
tliority the talk was divided between the '
2% columns for the Government side and
155 for the Opposition. Eleven of the longer
'speeches each exceeded an hour in length,
pretty thoroughly ventilated.
The House was remarkably unanimous
l in regard to the main subject. An amend-
ment by Mr. Bourassn. (the member who T
resigned his seat in protest against send-
ing the Contingent and was re-elected)
_ said amendment being against any Cana.-
dian payment to our soldiers, only receiv-
ed three votes. So it is all happily settled.
Our soldiers will receive from the Imper-
ial treasury the regular rate of ii, shilling
on active service in South Africa,a.nd they
will receive from thc Canadian treasury
26 cents per diem, a sum si ificieiit to make
their daily pay 50 cents. But it transpires
that from the time of their enrolment un-
til their arrivul at Cape Town the pay of
the Canadians was fixed at 40 cents a day,
that being the rate paid the rank and file
of the permanent force in Canada.
It is gratifying that the new departure
in contributing to the defence of the Col-
onial Empire has been so heartily endors-
ed by the Dominion Parliament. Today
it is Cape Colony and Natal that are at-
tacked. Next time it may be Cana da.. In
that case how welcome would be the ar-
, rival of a contingent of brother colonials
-from Australia or the Cape! We are ca.r-
rying out what may be called a colonial
Golden Rule,-~--doing in behalf of sister
Colonies and the Empire what we would
_ that they should do for us if we were at-
` tacked.

was a graceful act on the-part of Gen.
Buller to give the Natal Carbineers the
honor of leading the releiving column into
Ladysmith. We can only guess how they
jfelt, but if we imagine that instead of
Ladysmith it had been Sirmmerside that
had been besieged for four months we can
readily see how eager our Island volun-
teers would be to lead a relief movement.

Ontario has-settled on a. “good roads”
policy and will spend one hundred thou-
sand dollars a year for ten years, a million
_dollars in a.l1,to improve the highways of
that Province.Hitherto theroads have been
maintained at the cost of the municipal- ,
ities and the Government grant is an ad-
dition brought out by the persistent agita-
tion for better roads. It is expected that
the county and township councils will al-
so increase their eforts. In each county
of New York State five thousand dollars
will be spent specially and in addition to
previous expenditures to improve the
roads. Both in Ontario and New York
the riders of bicycles and the various as-
sociations of wheelmen have been most
active and influential in advancing the
good roads movement.

Nearly Evrry Soldier Haan Ddfereat Way
to Show It--Curious Case Recalled.
If you take it dozen soldiers as like each
other as peas so far as height, weight,
strength, age, coinage and general appear- `
ance are concerned, and .vound them all
in precisely the same way, you Will find
that scarcely any two of them are affected
Onc man, on receiving a bullet in his
leg, will go on fighting as if nothing had
happened. He does not know, iii fact,
that he novfcontnins a bullet. But per-
haps in two or three minutes he will grow
faint and fall. _ .
'Another ma.n,`without feeling the slight-
est pain, will tremble all over, totter-and
fall at once, even though the 'wound is
really very slight.
A third will cry out in a way to frighten
his comrades and will forget every-thing
in his agony- .A fourth will grow stupid
and look like an idiot. - '
Some soldiers wounded in the slightest
manner will have to be carried off the
field. Others; although perhaps fatally
injured, can easily walk to the ambulance.
Many die quickly from the shock to the
nervous system.
A very curious case is recorded in the
surgical history of the civil war, in which
three officers were hit just at the same
time. One had his leg from the knee
down carried away, but he rode ten
mlles to the hospital. Another lost his
little finger, and he becamea. raving lun-
atic. The third was shot through the
body and, though he did not shed ii drop
of blood externally dropped dead from the
shock.
